I never had anything to do with this car. I just had some pictures forever and always wondered what happened to it.

Here's the pictures I had:

And here are current pictures I got last night:

I know the 427 was pulled before Larry sold it, I believe he said that went into a custom Vette he did which is now in Australia. The current owner still has the old bias ply tires he took off the back, he didn't like how it drove versus the radials. It's not a perfect car by any means but something about this car just does it for me. I still can't believe it survived. I made it very clear I would like to own it if he decides to let it go. Hopefully some day I can bring it home. What are thoughts on value if it comes up for sale?

OK, I'll be brave (or crazy) and throw a couple figures atcha....$15K - $18K range. Obviously has a lot of sentimental value to you, but otherwise a fairly small audience for that type of vehicle. Pretty cool though, something I can relate to... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif[/img]

Current condition of this car I would say it would be tough to bring anything over 10K.

I'm praying if it comes up for sale its below 10k. Anyone else want to guess on value? I just talked with Larry and described the pictures to him. He actually sold it as a roller for $3500 back in the early 80's. The 350 came after he sold it. The steering wheel, center console and shifter are not what he had in the car either. I forwarded the pictures to him so we can figure out what would need to be redone to be "correct" for when he built it. Fortunately he still has the photo albums he did during the build.

unless it was a total rotten rust bucket underneath, I'd say 10g is a great price. nice 80's street machine [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]
